Title: Thermomètre médical sans contact possédant un écran contre les rayonnements parasites
Inventor: FRADEN JACOB
IPC: G01J5/00
Filed: 2009-10-23
Abstract: La présente invention a pour objet un thermomètre infrarouge (IR) sans contact pour la mesure de la température à partir de la surface d’un objet comprenant un capteur de rayonnement IR relié à un élément chauffant et un écran thermique ayant une surface intérieure positionnée à l’intérieur du champ de vision du capteur qui possède une émissivité élevée. Un circuit électronique commandant l’élément chauffant maintient les températures du capteur et de l’écran à des valeurs sensiblement proches d’une température de surface anticipée de l’objet. Le capteur de rayonnement IR est en outre thermiquement couplé à un capteur de température de référence. Un système optique positionné devant l’écran concentre les rayonnements thermiques provenant de l’objet sur la surface du capteur, tandis que l’écran empêche les rayonnements parasites d’atteindre le capteur. Des signaux provenant des capteurs IR et de référence sont utilisés pour calculer la température de surface de l’objet.

Abstract: A subject for the invention is to provide a process for ceramic bead production in which ceramic beads with smooth surfaces are obtained by a simpler method without using a complicated process involving, for example, a DC plasma/radio-frequency plasma combination or a two-stage radio-frequency plasma. Another subject is to provide such ceramic beads. The invention relates to a technique in which a preheated raw ceramic material is introduced into a laminar-flow thermal plasma obtained using a high-voltage type direct-current (DC) plasma gun and is cooled and solidified and the resultant ceramic beads are collected. It is preferred that the raw ceramic material should be preheated by passing the raw material through a furnace through which a refractory tube runs, while sending the raw ceramic material with a carrier gas, and that the preheated raw-material powder should be introduced into and treated with the thermal plasma under such conditions that the resultant ceramic beads are discharged from the thermal plasma at a discharge angle of 60° or larger with the thermal plasma. Thus, satisfactory ceramic beads which have smooth surfaces and have few crack defects and few internal void defects are obtained.

Abstract: A power generation system includes a combustion turbine assembly (11) having a main compressor (12) receiving ambient inlet air, a main expansion turbine (14), a main combustor (16), and an electric generator (15) for generating electric power. An air storage (18') has a volume for storing compressed air. A source of humidity (23, 34, 42) humidifies the compressed air that exits the air storage and thus provides humidified compressed air. A heat exchanger (24) receives a source of heat and the humidified compressed air so as to heat the humidified compressed air. A air expander (30) expands the heated, humidified compressed air to exhausted atmospheric pressure for producing additional power, and permits a portion of airflow expanded by the air expander to be injected into the combustion turbine assembly for power augmentation. An electric generator (31) is associated with the air expander for producing additional electrical power. The compressed air humidification reduces the compressed air storage volume for the same stored/generated energy.

Abstract: A broadcasting method and a communication device are disclosed by the present invention. The method includes: receiving a first data packet; and if the currently received first data packet is a repeated data packet, discarding the currently received first data packet when the times that the currently received first data packet is capable of being forwarded is less than or equal to the times that the first data packet is capable of being forwarded, where the times that the first data packet is capable of being forwarded is determined according to a pre-stored hop parameter of the first data packet. In the method according to the embodiments of the present invention, after receiving the repeated data packet, a device further compares the times that the first data packet is capable of being forwarded with the times that the first data packet is capable of being forwarded, where the times that the first data packet is capable of being forwarded is determined according to the pre-stored hop parameter, and further determines, according to a judgement result, whether to discard the data packet or continue forwarding the data packet, thereby improving the reliability of sending the data packet in the broadcasting manner.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for a beverage dispensing nozzle (10) equipped with at least one flow director (200) dispenses at lower flowrates. In a first embodiment, a single flavor beverage dispensing nozzle (10) equipped with at least one flow director (200) segments the flow and reduces the cross sectional area of the fluid stream, thereby forcing product to move downward. A second embodiment provides an improvement to an existing beverage dispensing nozzle, by adding at least one flow director (200) in an annular channel of the beverage dispensing nozzle. The addition of the at least one flow director (200) in the annular channel provides the beverage dispensing nozzle (10) with the ability to dispense product at lower flowrates by increasing the velocity component of the exiting product. The exiting product now has sufficient energy to separate from the beverage dispensing nozzle. Methods for using the beverage dispensing nozzles (10) with the at least one flow director (200) are also presented.
